If a country's age structure is ageing while total population is still growing, which conclusion is correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Ageing and positive population growth can occur together

Population ageing and total population growth describe different things. Ageing means that older people make up a larger proportion of the population, often because fertility has fallen and people live longer. Total population growth, however, depends on the balance between births and deaths and also on migration.

These processes can occur at the same time. A country may have a rising share of older people while births still exceed deaths, or while immigration adds more people. Thus, an ageing population does not necessarily mean that the total population is shrinking. Option B is correct. The other choices wrongly treat ageing and population growth as mutually exclusive or unrelated.
